Camara's Double-Double Undone by No. 19 West Virginia, 100-41
11/20/2016 4:01:00 PM | Men's Basketball
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – Junior forward Iba Camara (Dakar, Senegal) had a double-double with 10 points and 12 rebounds but it wasn't enough as the University of New Hampshire men's basketball team lost 100-41 Sunday afternoon to No. 19-ranked West Virginia at WVU Coliseum.
HIGHLIGHTS
Making his first start of the season, Camara scored the Wildcats' first four points, but UNH's 4-1 lead was short-lived. Behind its vaunted full-court press defense, West Virginia raced to a 24-4 run over an eight-minute stretch to lead 25-8 with 8:11 left in the first half.
The Mountaineers' defense didn't let up as UNH committed a season-high 34 turnovers, leading to 47 points. West Virginia nailed 10 of 19 three-pointers in the second half and finished 15 of 32 for the game.
